This game was loved by my mixed R/1 class so much that I created a 4 player A3 sheet version. It promotes reading and sharing. This download includes 5 PDF documents with 4 game boards (20 boards in all). Each split digraph a_e , e_e, i_e , o_e and u_e have been split into three levels of difficulty and the middle ability has a copy with the sounds highlighted to further differentiate. Boards contain a mixture of nonsense/alien words and real. The pupils simply roll die and then move car and say word they land on. They don’t move if they can’t. The other pupils really enjoy being the ref and check their friends learning. To make it a longer game use a die just up to 3. This can be used as a whole class activity / starter or with 1:1/group interventions. You could simply use this to time your children on how fast they can read the words. To extend game just overlap the game boards and make the track longer. Children could play best out of three or you could use the game boards to set out a mini competition/tournament around the classroom. It’s also great when doing transport as a theme and to check and stretch learning. I’ve included the word documents so that you can edit and create your own words. Great revision activity for the upcoming phonics screening. No real preparation needed. Simply print and use. You only need toy cars or a playing piece and a die. I really hope you and your class enjoy this as much as my class do. Please leave feedback if possible :) Thanks

This resource includes 7 game boards and an Interactive Smart board version. The alien words (pseudonyms) cover all the split digraphs and there is one board that covers just the sounds. To further extend the game you could hold your own world cup with group rounds and then knockout rounds. You could use two boards or a die up to 3. I hope that your class enjoys playing these games. Many thanks for viewing.

This 1 more/less 10more/less hunt can be differentiated many ways. I have already differentiated it 5 ways for my own class and printed out the sheets on different coloured paper for each group to find. Once the children have found the coloured shape that they've been given they must solve 1 more/less or 10 more less depending on their ability. They record on the answer sheets provided in the download. I hope this helps and feel free to differentiated to suit your class. Many thanks

This is a great game! The children read the word attached to ball and then flick it. I've also included find the bear game. Hope your children enjoy the game!

The children must try and solve which numbers are covered up to get the correct answer. Some questions have more than one way of making the answer. There are two worksheets with 6 q's on each. Many thanks

It's taken me a while to pull this all together and I apologies because it's not entirely finished. However, I felt that I needed to get it out there for others to use. The book includes 40 plus ideas to use in your class and hopefully gives you ideas to extend and enhance the games. Please leave feedback. One day I hope to finish and get it possibly published ( a pipe dream maybe but who knows). Many thanks

Hi, thanks for viewing these resources. Here are two presentations using concrete and abstract ques for you to demonstrate subtraction/addition or to allow the children to physically make amounts on board. The worksheet consists of over 15 greater depth q's and focus on extending your higher ability. Feel free to adapt these resources to suit the needs of your class. Many thanks and I hope they are useful.

This resource includes one template and one complete Year 2 common misconception words board game for up to 4 players. It’s A3. I’ve been struggling to engage my Year 3 class into learning their tricky words so came up with this. When a child’s playing piece lands on the circle they must write word in a sentence. Feel free to edit the words to suit your class. Hope this helps.

Hi, This resourse focus on allowing the children to engage in key critical thinking skills and practice their skills in place value, adding and subtracting. The 20 questions vary from asking the children to Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction and reading and writing numbers to 1000 using base-ten numerals and number names. I’ve included a word version so you can edit the questions to suit the needs of your class. Here’s some suggested ways to use this resource. Cut them up and laminate them- place them on the tables and ask your pupils to collaboratively solve them. Stick them in the children’s books and get them to answer them. After the children have solved a few ask them to place them in order of difficulty - ask them why and what they found most difficult. Thanks for buying this resource and I really hope that it helps your class with their learning.

Here is 1 sheet of 10 more 10 less 1 less 1 more puzzle grids. Ask the children to try and solve the number sentences to solve the numbers they must add/subtract 1 or 10 more/less than. I've included some coins for the children to recognise and keep their skills up to date. Thanks

This interactive whiteboard game is fab! Boys and girls love it. I use this to test children's reading skills and use it to model sounding out words. The children must come up and drag car to the correct word. The children can also play in pairs and challenge one another. I have made 3 versions and one maths version using Numicon. Feel free to edit the slides to suit your classes needs. Many thanks.

I use this resource in my class to remind my Year 3/4 children of my expectations during any writing task. They are great for quickly showing differentiation or just for reminding the children of what is expected of them . I love using the ‘check your writing’ bookmark as it gives the children a check list of what to look for! This resource includes: 3 differentiated writing book marks (ranging from Year 4 expected, Year 3/4 developing and E.O.Y 2 expectations for my lowers). 1 bookmark to remind how to use speech in writing. 1 bookmark to remind children of what to check in their writing. I have included the word doc so you can add/takeaway criteria. I hope these are useful and help your children with their writing. Many thanks.

This resource includes 10 questions, some open ended with low floor high ceiling questions. You might just want to use one or two of the questions as a main and make them practical. The IWB presentation includes some of the types of q's from worksheet. They have a mastery feel and allow the children to use their reasoning skills. The IWB includes some ordering activities, sorting and array making activities. I hope you and your children find this resource useful. Many thanks
